Scavenger Receptors of Endothelial Cells Mediate the Uptake and Cellular Proatherogenic Effects of Carbamylated LDL

Abstract

Our data suggest that cLDL uses a unique pattern of scavenger receptors. They show that LOX-1 receptor, and partially CD36, SREC-1, and SR-A1 receptors, are essential for the proatherogenic effects of cLDL on human endothelial cells.
